Prince deserves a century here, he's held the innings together like crazy glue.

Prince also should have been out. But meh, is cricket. Lee and Clark continue to be unlucky, but Bodgee is doing well. :)

LOL. Who is this Southies Commentator? "Some 90's are like 100's, in my book this is a 100". Sounds kinda bitter.

The hypocritical aspect of it becomes evident when little historical knowledge is applied. Healey claimed a catch on the bounce blatently ( off Lara). Gillchrist implored Dravid to walk in 2004 trip to OZ despite his bat being nowhere close to the ball. Langer displayed one of the most blatant act of cheating by breaking the stumps (from fwd. short leg) with his bare hands, the ball being nowhere CLOSE to him and appealing.....as such, the OZ players offering the chance to agree to accepting the fielder's word is similar to crocodile tears.

There would be also examples of players from other teams doing it too. No new phenomena there. Already knew the players weren't angels. Just as generalising Indians as being racist towards Australians is unacceptable, the judgements made in generalising the Aussies aren't cool either. Not sure if a lot of people have read other threads with you commenting on this, but you've done this plenty of times. And I think your previous comment:

Is this kinda racial profiling commonplace in your country ?

was the fuel for that kind of stupid remark. Whereas not many people voiced their outrage there, they're doing it here. Missed the firing squad I guess.

Works for me.

Edit:

Having waded through the last half an hour of pointless drivel, I suggest that parttimer and C_C take a time-out for 10 minutes and stop the sly (and not so sly) digs at each other before returning to more pressing matters.

Taking the smeg out of Richard.

Quality innings from Bodge at the end.

Two quick wickets (including Ponting) and game on? How's the pitch playing for people who are watching.

Nel opening with Ntini, not Polly. 1st time in 8 years Polly doesn't get the new ball. Someone's telling him he's old.:D
